I m indeed surprised to see the difference of price in website and practical is about 25,000. In the website of ford it is clearly written 25,000 lower in Silchar price when we check the ex-showroom price of Silchar . But practicall when we visited showroom in Silchar they gave us 25,000 more price list. Kindly confirm. Another thing i want to clarify regarding the future of ford diesel engine.Is it ok?Or high maintenance will be required?
